Question: who wrote the Psalms? Answer: for reasons of keeping with Biblical tradition I will refer to all characters using their Biblical identity. The Book of Psalms was revealed to the Hebrews in the Aramic (Hebrew) language. Two books were received by Solomon, 12 books to the sons of Korah, 12 books Asaf, 1 book to Heman, 1 book to Ethan, and 1 book to Moses (Mos), which was kept in Ethiopia. The Kemetian Pharaoh Amenhotep IV or Akhenaten son of Amenhotep III and Queen Tiye (1367-1340 B.C.E.) also possessed a psalm known as the hymn to the Aten. The psalms are commonly called The Psalms of David." This is generally borne out by ancient Hebrew writings. For example: * II Maccabees 2:13 refers to Psalms as "the writings of David." * The Septuagint adds a Davidic superscription to Psalms 33, 43, 71, 91, 93-99, 104 and 137. * Qumran scroll 11QPSa, 27:4-5, 9-10 ascribes to David a library of 3600 psalms and 450 songs.
